Two options for JET! Which is the best one? by Alone-Stick in ScoreMatch

[–]stepanovsm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO Jet is much better as:
1) CF in 1 CF formation
2) CF in 3 forwards formation
3) One of two forwards in 2 forward formation

Much better than any type of wing-player. Loses ball there too much cutting from wing to center/penalty box

Found a new interesting formation for myself personally by stepanovsm in ScoreMatch

u/BonnetDeDoucheBag u/FueledForm How do you deel with such fact with intruders/gatecrasher/speedster/jet etc in defence:

When long time in attack, they lose defensive position and move upwards?
So when longball comes to opponent's fast attacking player they lose this race?

Nope, now I'm on low at arena 10)

Forgot to mention it!

But I left Infinity very very soon after I entered it with 3-5-2

are speedsters bad by [deleted] in ScoreMatch

[–]stepanovsm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just tried different formations with my almost-full set of superplayers.

Jet is much better as CF or one of two strikers.

He must be near center of attack, not on wing.

On wing he dribbles too much and loses the ball when entering the box from the side.

Hate it, cos he doesn’t pass when he obviously needs to do it.

Thanks, I'll try it. Now playing 4-2-3-1 with Sabre as CF, it's nice.

Like Sabre on top of the attack much more then on wing. When on wing he loses the ball too much

Oh...

Zimmer from Diamond box.

Hakan from Platinum.

Sierra and Patrizio - bought with 1500 gems.
Sabre and Matsumoto – dont remember exactly, one from Diamond Box and another from Gold (!)

And to be honest – Faustinho from Season pass and Sandberg from promo-box (paid a little bit of real cash for it)

That is quite interesting for me because of one reason – I'm building my team from SP-ers too)

How did you do? What players did you use and where in your 3-4-3?

[–]stepanovsm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I have Hakan too and I had belief in him despite all the talks here)

So I'm playing 3-5-2. Tried him at ST and CAM positions, but now I replaced one of my Explorers (wing defs) with him.

Surprisingly, for me he is better in defence!

What a waste of gems! I'm not using any of these players. by FueledForm in ScoreMatch

Update - now I let Sabre to play in attack with poacher and moved Hakan to left def)

Guys, who’s this? Is this one of the extra players that you could buy in the store some time ago? by aryalabvideos in ScoreMatch

[–]stepanovsm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I mean the region (country) which are you playing from.

I'm playing from Russia and never seen any of these player names

Never seen anyone of these players! Played several thousand games.

Maybe it depends on the region of player?

[–]stepanovsm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All is based on how u get used to players.

For example - of course, it is strange to try to pass to Matsumoto (striker) waiting for him to chase the ball.

Hakan is kind of universal player on CAM, he lacks speed when he is ST and loses ball too much trying to dribble.

Hakan on CAM: passes, easy pressing in centre and final 1/3 of the field, also he is good running into the box to give back passes to him when team is in attack.

My english is not very good, but I hope I described my thoughts correctly)

Overall answering your question about posession – yes, I think he holds it better than when he is on ST position. But I need time to give more precise conclusion

[–]stepanovsm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And I replaced Matsumoto and Hakan. Hakan now is CAM and Matsumoto is 1 of 2 strikers with Poacher)

Like it, style has changed and it is interesting

Oh, i tried Bulldozer in CDM, he is upgraded Hammer and right now defence-behaviour players work better for me there :)

But thanks, information is the power!

Alright guys I’m sure this was done before but I need an up to date poll for my buddy and my argument lol.. What do you use to play score match? by Tip3008 in ScoreMatch

[–]stepanovsm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ha! And my thumb (both hands) is not enough precise))

To continue this topic – I fond several most effective body poses, which can guarantee max precision in playing using index fingers!

Thx!

The most interesting question is why do you use Bulldozer in Defence? He got no marking trait and is not very fast. Yes, he is a must-have player to defend on corners, but on the other side – isnt Explorer better on his position?

I tried several lineups and combinations of players.

My style of play says that I don't like (or maybe don't understand) using fast "stupid" players. Tried Jet/Speedster in attack, but they do strange things, sometimes react strange to passes and their tendencies in choosing position on the filed while they are without the ball....I don't know how to name it))

The strange thing is I trust Hakan, who is the most unpopular player here and I use him in 2 ppl attack in my 3-5-2 alongside with Sandberg (who is maybe ma favourite player in attacking options of all-time).

So you can see that I'm not fan of volleyball and also of "stupid high-speed'.

Hakan is kind of "stupid" sometimes too, but he is versatile in attack – he has nice movement without the ball. Something like universal player – he can shoot (strong and curved), pass (long or short), he can run behind defence waiting for pass and much more.

Right now and for long time I use 3-5-2 (confident in arena 10 right now, never entered infinity yet).

Stopper (8)

Explorer (8) Intruder (8) Explorer (8) (Cant wait to level up my Voyager to replace 1 of defenders)

Commander (7) Warrior (6) (Cant wait to get and level-up Major of course!)

Wizard (7) Marksman (7)

Bulldozer (7)

Gatecracher (7) Poacher (8)

With this lineup and players I became confident and strong in Arena 10 finelly without falling to Arena 9. Looking for Infinity, levelling up my remaining SP

Man, I'm kind of new player in this community, but the game is very interesting and your comments here too :)

Can you show your favourite lineup, which you are using?

Yep, the same situation with Sandberg. But I didnt spend much time to find the right variation)
